Career
He is the founding leader of the New Power Party (Nuclear Power Plant) in Taiwan and lead vocalist of the Taiwanese heavy-metal band Chthonic. He is also the lead vocalist of the band Metal Clone X started by him and legendary guitarist Marty Friedman. He served as chair of Amnesty International Taiwan from 2010 to 2014.
Lim was an ardent supporter of Chinese unification as a student, because he was taught from China-centric textbooks in middle school and high school.
A diagnosis of anxiety in middle school made him ineligible for military duty. Lim formed Chthonic in his second year of university, when he began identifying more strongly with his Taiwanese identity.
He was elected to lead Amnesty International Taiwan in 2010 and stepped down on 31 May 2014. He defeated Lin in the elections held on 16 January.
Lim was assigned to the Foreign and National Defense Committee after taking office.
